On Saturday Tegan took a 4 1/2 hour nap and when he woke up he was burning up. I took his temperature and it was 104.7. We put him in a cold bath right away and tried to get it to go down. It continued to go up and down over the next couple of hours but never got below 102. We called the on-call doctor and he said we should take him to urgent care. On the way there he seemed really lethargic and seemed to be having trouble breathing. They ended up treating him for Croup!! They gave him a breathing treatment and then he went to sleep for 20 minutes. All of the sudden he woke up and was ready to laugh and play. And after 5 hours we were able to go home.
He did not enjoy the cold bath one bit!
He did not enjoy the cold bath one bit! When he was not crying he would lean his head on Stacy's hand.
On Sunday he was not all the way better but was ready to play.
Monday he seemed a little more tired and like he did not feel well.
I made him a sick bed on the couch and he got to rest all day.
It was so cute how he just laid there by himself and relaxed.
Even though he is no longer contagious we decided to keep him home from daycare for a few days to rest.
We are taking advantage of all the cuddle time while we can.
